News: Activision has revealed that some of their biggest games for the remainder of the year will also be available on Apple devices.

Apple held an event earlier today showing off some new hardware. Among those was Apple TV and the increased emphasis that gaming is going to have on it. Following up on that announcement Activision revealed that Guitar Hero Live, Skylanders Superchargers and Geometry Wars 3: Dimensions Evolved are also coming to Apple TV as well as other Apple devices this fall.

Guitar Hero Live is coming to the newly announced Apple TV, as well as iPhone, iPad and iPod touch this fall. People will be able to play in their living room with Apple TV and take their game on the go with iPhone or iPad, as the Bluetooth Guitar controller works across Apple devices.

Guitar Hero Live was built from the ground up to bring the rock star fantasy to life in a way that was never possible before, with live action film, real crowds that react to how you play and the world's first playable music video network. Guitar Hero is and has always been a global phenomenon, so the game was designed to reflect the way people consume entertainment today.

Jamie Jackson, co-studio head and creative director at FreeStyleGames, says:

"We jumped at the opportunity to bring back Guitar Hero in a cool new way with Guitar Hero Live and have been energized by the response from fans who have had a chance to play it so far. We can't wait for the game to launch next month and think people are going to get a kick out of living their rock star fantasy on consoles, mobile devices and Apple TV this fall. It's going to be rad!"
